Cape Sebastian Trail (Coast Trail)
The Cape Sebastian Trail (Coast Trail) at the Cape Sebastian State Scenic Corridor in Gold Beach, Oregon is a moderate 2.7-mile out-and-back trail that runs along a steep ridge and down to Hunters Cove and features stunning views of the Oregon coastline.This trail begins at the main parking lot and heads southwest and then eventually due-south heading downhill towards Hunters Cove. Along the hike down, hikers will pass benches at vista points that feature breathtaking views of the Oregon coast.
The trail winds down the hill, passing several switchbacks, before reaching Hunter Cove. Hunter Cove is yet another breathtaking beach where hikers can settle down for a picnic or just rest to take in the views before heading back uphill.
Views: The best view point along the trail can be found just 0.15-miles from the parking lot - just before the trail starts heading downhill. For people with not much time, at the very least, it's worth stopping by this lookout point.
Pets: Dogs are allowed if leashed and their waste must be carried out by the hiker.
Parking: Parking can be found at the coordinates provided in the large lot suitable for at least 20 vehicles.
